The execution of another death row prisoner, Anwar Ali, was suspended in Gujranwala after an agreement was reached with the complainant party. He was found guilty of a dual murder that took place in 2002. The hanging of another triple murder convict, Amaanullah, was also postponed as his appeal is still pending in the Supreme Court.
